if your trying to catch tabuu then you should:1. Use characters with good B moves. Exmple: Kirby's hammer, pits arrows, Pikachu's Thunder... etc.KIll him:1. Side dodge or air dodge his attacks.2. Attack with dril attacks.3. If there is a hothead, use fire attacks to boost it up or hit it alot. 4. Chuck trophy stands at it if it has lots of health if you don't want to catch it.

Here is a tip for dodging the red ring of death. You should use the sidestep where you press down and shield at the same time. If you aren't good at this, just sit there and practice.

More likely though, it's your reaction times that are failing here, so here's a multi-step plan to fix that.

1. Stand about 15 feet away from a friend.2. Have him chuck a tennis ball at your face.3. Duck down to dodge the ball.4. Repeat until reaction times improve.5. If reaction times don't improve, use a harder object, such as a baseball or knife.

Beating Tabuu is easy on INTENSE with the following: fox, ike, pikachu, mario, olimar, and mr game and watch. Just roll dodge all his moves, and attack behind him everytime you get the chance.(I beat him with ike!)

he was hitting a Hothead, and I threw it and it literally took about 1/4 of his health away.

I swear the same thing happened to me.

Same exact thing happened to me, too! But I use Ike with his strong aerial attacks. My team was Ike (strength), ZSS (agility), MK (speed, strength, flight), Wolf (strength, reflector), Ganondorf (strength), and Sonic (speed). But I usually beat him with just Ike unless I mess up.

As far as answering the first question, well-timed sidesteps and practice are your best bet.
